Steve Coogan is Alan Partridge. The crass chat show host who whas spectacular fall from grace in these three BBC TV episodes.

Knowing Me, Knowing Yule (29 December 1995)
In a special Christmas edition of his television chat show, the irrepressible Alan bids the nation good tidings from 'an exact replica reproduction' of the interior of his house - and counts the BBC's Chief Commissioning Editor amongst his guests. However, his attempts to secure a second series go far from well... in fact, they end in complete disaster

I'm Alan Partridge A Room with an Alan (3 November 1997)
Since the catastrophic end to his chat show (see above) Alan has been rebuilding his career as an early-morning DJ on Radio Norwich. His wife has left him for a fitness instructor, and Alan has moved to the Linton Travel Tavern - where, he says, 'they make a cracking Irish coffee'. In this first episode we meet Alan's personal assistant Lynn, whom he describes as being like Burt Reynolds - very reliable, but she's got a moustache,

I'm Alan Partridge Alan Attraction (10 November 1997)
The romantic excitement of Valentine's Day is tempered with ill tidings for Alan, who's faced with the prospect of giving up his Rover 200 and sacking everyone at his production company He still finds time, though, to whisk the lovely Jill off for a day at the local bird sanctuary, in the hope that she genuinely likes him 'sex-wise'.

About Alan Partridge...

After five years on Radio Norwich as drive-time's Traffic Buster, he became resident sports reporter on The Day Today, but left. In 1993 he launched a new dimension in chat with Knowing Me, Knowing You with Alan Partridge which transferred to TV the following year The show received massive critical acclaim from Bella magazine. Alan challenged the 'Chatus Quo' by accidentally shooting a man dead, live on air.

Alan has the 4.30-7. 30am slot on Radio Norwich 106.5 FM and recently presented a promotional video for Hamilton's Waterbreaks directed by Steve Bennett.
